Extremely effective and reduce business TCO

For many large enterprises and institutional customers, energy consumption is a significant IT operation cost, of which it is estimated that 40% of the energy consumed by the enterprise data center is consumed by the server. ThinkServer RD640 utilizes Lenovo's innovative "smart energy-saving technology" to dramatically improve system energy efficiency. In the prestigious SpecPower Standard Test, the RD640 provides users with excellent energy management with 30% lower electricity costs due to its low power consumption and energy-efficient hardware and software management system. At the same time, the RD640 features a leading dynamic load power supply with the industry's highest standard of Redundant hot-swap (platinum power), 94% power conversion efficiency and dynamic load regulation to ensure power conversion efficiency.

The ThinkServer RD640 features a family of innovative Smart Grid technologies. The system uses unattended design, the user can use the web-side independent management interface, through a few simple steps to configure the process, easy remote management of data center energy consumption. Its embedded intelligence algorithms provide trends and reports by monitoring power consumption and server performance, and recommend optimized data center physical layout management and power management strategies for users. The power management system based on dynamic monitoring of application performance is based on dynamic monitoring data and can maximize energy saving without affecting the performance. The user can also start temperature monitoring, obtain hot-room report, and optimize the air-conditioning planning of the engine room.

In addition, ThinkServer RD640 uphold Think "high quality" gene, using ThinkServer family unique super-cushioning technology, effectively reduce 40% due to vibration caused by system failure, significantly improve system stability. The chassis uses a double body design, the strength of 20% higher than the average chassis; hard disk warehouse is double reinforcement design, the intensity of 50% higher than the average hard disk storage.

Seamless integration helps enterprises flexible and easy to manage

For enterprise IT managers, data center scaling can be a daunting task, because multi-protocol tuning is required for different equipment brands, or even unmatched, and the process is cumbersome and time-consuming. To this end, ThinkServer RD640 for users to create a truly open management, using open industry standards and protocols, compatible with multi-brand product environment, seamless integration with the application environment; through the ThinkServer family of machine-free tool design, so that administrators do not need any Tools to complete the disassembly of the server, 60 seconds shelves, rapid repair failure.

ThinkServer RD640 provides users with a series of practical management tools, you can easily achieve batch deployment, alarm, system management. The new ThinkServer server navigation software Easy Startup helps IT administrators deploy high-volume servers at the same time, with just two mouse clicks to complete the installation of all major operating systems in the industry and to configure RAID during installation without the need for separate configuration, Significantly reduce the overall cost of server deployment. The Lenovo original DIT fault self-diagnosis technology, CPU, memory, power supply, fans and other major components for accurate fault location and system fault information displayed in the intuitive management interface to help users quickly locate and shorten the downtime.

Lenovo ThinkServer RD640 in addition to a unique firmware upgrade system to help IT administrators upgrade system firmware anytime, anywhere, continue to optimize server operating efficiency, as well as VMware vCenter and Microsoft SCE latest plug-in tools, as well as with VMware vSphere Operations Management management software And Lenovo | EMC storage technology to create a complete virtualization management solutions can further help IT managers to improve business management efficiency.
